BEDFORD Co., Va. (WSET) -- A few days after resigning as Liberty University's president, Jerry Falwell Jr. was injured in a fall after drinking, according to a 911 call obtained by WSET.
According to the 911 call, on Sunday, Aug. 30, Falwell was reportedly injured and his wife, Becki Falwell, called 911 to report he had fallen down the stairs and was bleeding.
"It was night time and he fell from the stairs and there's a lot of blood right now," Becki told the Bedford County dispatcher.
According to the call, Becki said that Falwell had been drinking but wouldn't say if he was "drinking heavily" when the dispatcher asked.
Im not going to answer that question, she said.
When the dispatcher restated the question, stating she was just trying to help them, Becki said he may have had "just a little bit."
When the dispatcher asked for her name, Becki said, the more I tell you, the name, the more youre going to understand why were not talking to you right now, I'm sorry."
Falwell resigned Monday, Aug. 24. after reports said his wife had a sexual relationship with another man.
He said the affair only lasted for a short time and the two reconciled quickly. Falwell claims the affair sent him into a depression he said was like living on a roller coaster.
On Aug. 31, Libertys board of trustees announced an investigation of Falwell's tenure as president. That same day Bedford County dispatchers received a 911 call from Becki.
Becki said Falwell didn't want to go to the hospital because he was being stubborn. She stated he was bleeding from the head, ear, and nose.
According to a dispatch log obtained by ABC13, the first responder who went to the Falwells' home that night reported Falwell had cuts on his face and slurred speech.
The log said the cuts were reportedly from a trash can that had empty alcohol containers in it.
A family friend of the Falwells told ABC13 that alcohol was not a factor in the fall.
They say Jerry lost his footing on steps inside the home and sustained a bad cut to the face. Becki tended to the wound and they both went to bed.
The family friend adds that a few hours later, Jerry woke up with blood all over his face, pillow, and sheets.
Out of an abundance of caution, Becki called 911 for an ambulance. The family friend notes that under pressure from the dispatcher, she noted that Jerry had consumed alcohol, but he only had some wine after the fall to help relax.
The family friend adds that Jerry only received a bandage for his cuts and did not go to the hospital.
Mr. Granda, the pool boy, gave an interview to Washington Post...

Mr. Granda mentioned suicide one day when he sent a text message to Mr. and Mrs. Falwell...He was trying to "move on"...He was very frustrated with them...They would not pay him the money for him to leave the business, that he set up with the couple...
The Post reporter did see the screenshots of Facetime conversation with Mr. and Mrs. Falwell...Mr. Granda had a Facetime talk with Mrs. Falwell...She was topless, drinking wine...Jerry was watching...
Sounds like he needs Jesus.
Did he fall into a set of golf clubs?
What a mess.
So sad.
Jim Baker has offered his good offices.
I guess he fell well.
Fall. Push. Both four letter worlds. Coincidence? I think not. Lol.
Is there any other kind?
Sad state of affairs. Many hypocritical charlatans have hijacked Christianity in the United States for their narrow personal benefit, enrichment, access to power and usage. Theyll pay for it. It is so written.
I guess someone needs to teach him that you don’t mix your drink by swallowing it and falling down the stairs.
Hes a damned freak show kinkbot charlatan
Shame buddy shame
You need to find redemption or you are not going to be too happy at Yachthalla
What irks me most was how they had their little party deriding common folk hillbillies
Snobs masquerading as Christians on their incredibly expensive leased boat imitating rednecks and him with his drawers unzipped with his arms around a not overly clothed pregnant woman....wine in hand
Bye as they say...go away
Some televangelist slot in Kenner LA will open for you soon enough.....
You can cry on cue
Sounds like Satan found an open window to me
Power and money, I would think, can easily corrupt the strongest of men (and women). Apparently, something has contributed to the fall from grace that are the Falwells; I suspect power and money, not to mention the stress of filling the big footprints left by their fathers. Richard Roberts and his wife are other examples. We must remember, God has no grandchildren; each individual must come to him as His son or daughter, NOT His grandchildren.
Jerry Falbad?
Sounds like AA is a great place for him to get back on the road to recovery.
Sounds Jr needs prayers because he seems lost and confused
